The SUV then smashed into a landscaping truck headed northbound.
The man and woman in the SUV were taken to Harborview for treatment – the 25-year-old woman, who was a passenger, died of her injuries while at the hospital.The 30-year-old man driving the landscaping truck was listed in stable condition. The forklift driver didn’t have to go to the hospital and was taken by police to be evaluated by an expert in drug recognition. Officers believe he was under the influence.
Police were expected to take the man to the King County Jail to be booked for investigation of vehicular homicide. Seattle Police Detective Valerie Carson told KIRO 7 TV it was possible the forklift was stolen. That information was also not confirmed.
